FDM’s Returners Programme

We have teamed up with Amazon Web Services (AWS) re/Start to offer Returners to work the opportunity to restart their career working in project delivery in the Cloud space. No previous experience in Cloud required to join the programme. Does this sound like the right opportunity for you?

• Have you had a career break of 12+ months?
• Do you have 5+ years of industry experience?
• Are you ready to re-join the workforce full time?

Our Returners Programme is specifically designed to support professionals returning to work after a career break.
